Events
Chem ED-Virtual Seminar Series
The Chemistry Education Division of Chemical Institute of Canada brings together members in the field of Chemistry Education.
The goals of our seminar series are:
Foster community and sharing of expertise among Chemistry Education Division members
Provide to educators who may not always have access to wider community audiences opportunities to share their teaching and learning scholarship and activities.
Provide a platform for traditionally marginalized voices in chemistry education, including those in non-traditional faculty roles.
Provide opportunities for discussion of topics and for conversations in formats not commonly seen in departmental speaker events or conference presentations.
We are pleased to introduce a new series of virtual talks covering a wide range of topics in chemistry education, including laboratory education, online learning analytics and assessment, chemistry in Indigenous culture, BIPOC experiences in chemistry academia and much more.
#CLEAR26
#CLEAR26 is an online symposium with two keynotes, some short talks, and an online poster session on the theme of laboratory education in chemistry. Learn more and register here.
